“If, at the age of 30, you are stiff and out of shape, then you are old
If, at 60, you are supple and strong, then you are young”Joseph H.Pilates
What is Pilates?
Pilates was first developed over eighty years ago by Joseph H Pilates. It is a unique body conditioning regime which changes both the way you look and the way you move.
- Working on the deep postural (core) muscles of the body.
- Pilates re-balances muscle groups, brings your body into correct postural alignment and restores natural, normal movement.
- Your overall health and appearance will improve as your body becomes longer, leaner and more toned.
- Your posture will improve achieving the perfect balance between muscle strength and flexibility, and stress is relieved.
Pilates is perfect for first time exercisers, where its slow, controlled approach brings long term results and for athletes looking to improve performance without the risk of injury. It is often recommended for those with back or joint problems.
